Cell Host and Microbe(I know, a typical coffee table staple) article now making some headlines (see Google news) about MRSA getting worse if initially treated with a beta lactam antibiotic.

Unsure how valid the study is- but if there is any truth to it a clear benefit for Brilacidin.

This would mean that you might make a patient worse if you choose to treat an MRSA infection with the usual first line cephalosporin drugs such as cephalexin etc. That would make you want to start out in a different direction, different class of meds- if this study turns out to be valid
